Do you have an ETA when the importer will support importing to Git? I thought I was losing my mind when I tried to clone the repo I imported from SVN into bit bucket and was getting errors. I realized later that it was not imported as a git project.

I fully agree that without history, it's not much of an import. However, offering real proper history imports is tricky. We are aware of the tools, but we'll have to offer something that works equally well for both Git and Mercurial and during our initial internal testing last year we consistently ran into issues, especially when processing large repositories. The result of all this is that we did not feel like we would be able to offer a solution that "just works".
